ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., June 11, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- World Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:WEGY), a company focused on energy conservation technologies and environmental sustainability, is pleased to report that the company's test automobile experienced a 24% fuel flow reduction on its first run.
After initializing the company's proprietary hydrogen/oxygen system, a 1998 Honda traveling at 60 MPH dropped its fuel flow from 2.1 GPH to 1.6 GPH. World Energy Solutions' hydrogen/oxygen powered internal combustion engine, commonly referred to as HHO, was successful in reducing the amount of gasoline required to drive the car by methodically introducing Hydrogen and Oxygen into the fuel system to augment the gasoline. To achieve these impressive results the company has also designed and developed a proprietary alternator that produces 3 phase power. That power system drives the company's unique onboard electrolysis system.
World Energy Solutions has been actively developing energy and fuel savings systems based upon its rights to the patents application, "Method and Apparatus for the Production of Hydrogen and Oxygen" (Patent Application # 20070089997). These patent application rights were originally acquired to further develop an energy efficient and economical system that can produce hot water on demand. This same energy saving technology has been applied to the company's test automobile, creating onboard hydrogen/oxygen gas on the fly.
"We firmly believe these initial results are the beginning of an entirely new energy/fuel saving technology. Not only do these new technologies offer the promise of reduced fuel consumption, but they also represent a potentially major reduction in harmful emissions," says Ben Croxton, CEO of World Energy Solutions, Inc. "This is an exciting year for our company, as much of our developmental efforts begin to demonstrate their commercial merits."
The unique feature of the hydrogen/oxygen-powered internal combustion engine is the reduced amount of gasoline required as the primary fuel source. HHO is environmentally friendly since, through continuous electrolysis, the gasoline is replaced with water and the constituent gases are removed. Through its gasoline substitution and removal of exhaust gases, the technology of HHO addresses the rising costs of fuel and the heightened need for environmental responsibility.
